Senator O'Mara shares his weekly perspective on issues facing New York State government.

We have proudly helped lead this charge because the need is undeniable. Among others, the state comptroller issued a report in October 2017 estimating that locally owned bridges alone needed nearly $28 billion in repairs. An earlier comptroller’s report called 32% of New York’s local bridges deficient and 40% of local roads fair or poor, and worsening.

Senator O'Mara offers his weekly perspective on many of the key challenges and issues facing the Legislature, as well as on legislative actions, local initiatives, state programs and policies, and more. Stop back every Monday for Senator O'Mara's latest column "From the Capitol..."

This week, "Wearing orange and delivering a message"
